For Nate's 3rd Birthday we headed over to Santa Cruz for a weekend of riding the rails.
Jack and Grammy at the tracks
"Please can I ride on your shoulders?"
Steam Train's a comin'!
Our first ride was on the Steam Train into the forest.
Watching all the steam overhead.
Don't look down!
CHEESE
Tight corner - watch your hands.
Nate held on to his golden ticket the whole ride.
Naughty Nate!
Sometimes they really do like each other:)
Back at the hotel it was time for presents.
Even Jack got a gift - his awesome kraken sweater handmade by Grammy.
Playing with his loot.
The next morning we took the train to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.
Nate trying out his photography skills on Mom.
Jack was chosen by the conductor to talk into the microphone to the engineer and give him a "high ball."
